The mandate Sandra Fluke et al already has is "free to the patient" birth control paid for by the shareholders of the insurance companies and drug companies.

I would think that most people would be aware that a large number of women use the pill for reasons other than birth control, too, but they don't seem to be.

One (not me; guys don't take time to think) might also think that given all the sex ed people have had for the last couple of generations, guys would all yell, "You don't need to do anything cuz I'm snipped; my insurance paid for it".

I strongly support backyard growers.

". You would think that given all the sex ed people have had for the last couple of generations that they would be aware of the variety of birth control methods out there "

It is not a lack of knowledge that is the problem. It is a lack of responsibility and we don't teach that.
